Wildbridge’s second phase of contemporary, EPC A rated homes is set to launch in Yapton, West Sussex on Friday 19th April and Saturday 20th April.
Meeting the growing demand for supply of affordable, energy efficient homes in the county, the launch of the second phase at Wildbridge marks an exciting chapter for the region. Comprising 67 two, three, and four bedroom houses, The Aldwick Collection also delivers on the UK government’s bid to ensure as many homes as possible have an energy efficiency rating of C or higher by 2035
In the desirable village of Yapton, just 12 minutes from Arundel and 22 minutes’ drive from Chichester, Wildbridge is the perfect combination of coastal and country living, set in the picturesque surroundings of the South Downs National Park and three miles from the seaside town of Littlehampton.
These spacious homes offer an affordable route for buyers to choose from a diverse range of houses, to suit all needs. The key to this is shared ownership. This Government -funded scheme means that the buyer purchases a share of equity in their home, with a lower deposit and pays a subsidised rent to Hyde New Homes for the remaining share.
For example, a two-bedroom house in The Aldwick Collection at Wildbridge starts from £108,500 for a 35% share of the home. This will require a minimum deposit of just £10,085. The buyer can then purchase additional shares, at any time convenient to them, all the way up to full ownership, if they so wish.
In comparison, the minimum deposit required to reserve a home of the same value buying the traditional private sale route, based on a 20% deposit, would be £62,000.
Wildbridge combines affordability and energy efficiency. What’s more, with buyers now potentially paying almost a third more to get onto the property ladder than they were five-years-ago, buying outright has become impossible for many and shared ownership is the only viable option.
With its ease of access to a multitude of amenities and transport links, as well as its wide selection of homes, Wildbridge is providing a lifeline for growing families and young professionals looking to take a step onto the property ladder.
Minnie Dando, Head of Marketing & Communications from Hyde New Homes explains:
“We are very excited to launch the second phase of the beautiful Wildbridge development. With rents in the Arundel area considered very high, and the lack of a suitable rental properties on the market, these new-build homes offer a more accessible route for buyers to make the exciting first step onto the property ladder, and also a fantastic way to make their money go further. For some, the opportunity to be a homeowner was once a pipe dream, but buying through shared ownership, may make that more achievable, and an excellent stepping stone to full ownership in the future.”
Each Wildbridge house has its own charm, with high specification fixtures and fittings, modern kitchens with integrated appliances, bespoke flooring throughout as standard, and light-filled rooms, perfect for family life and entertaining.
The properties also offer buyers their own piece of private green space, laid to lawn with sheds and environmentally friendly water butts, with each pristine garden ripe for personalisation, as well as a parking area or driveway.
The homes have been built with the environment at the forefront, guaranteeing their EPC rating of A, with superior insulation, provided by double-glazed windows, extract ventilation, LED downlights, Vaillant Ecofit combi boilers or System boilers and the addition of solar panels, providing eco-friendly and renewable energy. All homes come with an LABC Buildmark warranty, and selected properties will also benefit from electric car charging points.
In keeping with Yapton’s traditional village-feel, homes at Wildbridge have community at their heart, set amidst a bevy of green spaces, including a new play area and park for all residents to enjoy. Yapton’s offering of local shops, cafes and pubs are within walking distance, as well as an abundance of destinations to explore throughout the changing seasons, such as the Arundel Wetland Centre and the iconic East Beach at Littlehampton.
Reservations for The Aldwick Collection at Wildbridge will be live from 19th April, with selected homes ready to move into this summer and guide prices starting from:
